Hello;

I wanted to know how do I add new themes to frontpage
2000? I have done it before with a third pary source on cd-
rom that loaded fine but, when i went to a website and
downloaded new themes that were compressed with winzip
they would not load as easily as the others did. I do have
the souce files uncompressed on my computer but they would
not load into my theme selection list. Can anyone tell me
whats wrong?

I presume that you have four files for each theme:
<theme>.elm, <theme>.inf, <theme>.utf8, and preview.gif,
where <theme> is an abbreviated name for the theme.

To install, create a folder with the same <theme> name in
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Themes\,
and then copy the four files for that theme into that
folder.
